Right. While yesterday was tough to watch, it really shouldn't do anything to Purdy's stock or one's thought of him. He got hurt almost immediately and clearly could barely throw.
I don't think Brady goes there, but if he does just have them backup Brady and learn from him IMO for the year or whatever. Should Tom look great and they win the SB or something then SF should start to think harder about this question (though the answer is probably trading one of them for whatever they can get).
I doubt this happens.
It was two times. Don't short change him. But you could tell on the 2nd one as he shot putted it over to the receiver that he had nothing. It's looking more and more like an UCL as that zaps all whip and snap to any throw.
Agreed.
If he needs Tommy John the 2023 season will be lost for Purdy. Been playing FBB long enough to know that timeline isn’t pretty.
Lance needed a second surgery a few weeks ago for irritation and inflammation from his initial surgery. He's expected to be ready for OTA's, but who knows if / when he will be 100%. Similarly, we don't know what SF feels about a guy that's only had 4 starts in 2 years with a 54% completion percentage. Maybe SF thinks they are good to go with Purdy and Lance, but IMO, it's hard to completely dismiss that they may have to bring in someone else (or try to bring back Jimmy G.).
I think Jimmy looked too happy yesterday thinking of his next paycheck. Seems like that ship has sailed regardless of what happens with Purdy and Lance.
Agreed
I didn't think Jimmy would be back last season. There are a lot of QBs that could be moved or are free agents next year. Brady, Rodgers, Lamar, Carr, Smith, Jones, Fields, Mayfield, Darnold . . . plus a new crop of rookies. There could be 10-12 guys that have a shot at starting somewhere. I guess it depends how much Garoppolo wants, for how long, and how much guaranteed.

Fair enough. I’ve been just assuming Jimmy is gone.
But that’s just one “magical run” season for Foles, and not really indicative of his career.
I don't think so. From my outside's view, he essentially sacrificed his marriage to have one more meaningful NFL run and, from the way he wisely (but not best for winning the game immediately) avoided hits the second half of this year, I think he wants to make another run at it.
Brady is retiring imo
Last off-season called, they want their hot take back.
Last season no one was kicking the tires on a JimmyG with a busted wing.
Could open up another Jimmy G reunion but he’ll assuredly have a lot more suitors this offseason than last when he was recovering.
Foles was 24 years old when he had that season. He became a journeyman because it turned out he wasn't a great QB, despite that impressive run. My point is, that's a plausible future for Purdy.
Which, combined, is a heck of a bargain for two viable starting options at QB.
I tried reading that in Wooderson’s voice in my head.
If there were people saying he is too soft for not playing through the injury they can take their hot takes and shove 'em.Just read compete UCL tear.
At this point, if they can surgically repair the damage, then it would be 6 months. But he still might need full Tommy John reconstructive surgery, which would be longer. That’s what Tom Pelissero is saying.
Well, that sucksJust read compete UCL tear.

Get well Kid
Fair enough. I’ll admit I thought Foles was older at the time. Even before this injury, the parallel could have continued.
Well done.
Just read compete UCL tear.
Why would he go to a team with a terrible defense? The 49'ers make the most sense as much as I hate to say it. Otherwise it's the Bucs, Panthers, or retirement IMO.I don't think so.

I could see him going to the Raiders.
Indeed - as noted above though the issue is whether he needs repair surgery or reconstructive surgery (Tommy John). Guess we'll hear more in the coming days/weeks.Just read compete UCL tear.
Somebody in the game thread nailed it almost immediately saying it looked like it could be a UCL tear.
Plus he has 3 years left on a minimum rookie contract, very affordable guy to keep around.
